The Deal or No Deal star, 76, is keen to get married again in their new Kiwi home

And for the first time he will be putting his new life in the spotlight in the ITV1 show, Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure.
This could well include showing his fifth wedding to wife Liz Davies, after he popped the question yet again.
And the Deal or No Deal star, 76, is keen to get married again in their new Kiwi home.
He told the Mirror of the proposal: 'We've been married a lot. We got married in a civil ceremony in the Cotswolds, then we went to our home in France and an Anglican minister who I knew very well came over and he was going to bless us and he did the whole thing again.
'So this became a bit of a joke with our friends. Oh yeah, we were filming on a cruise ship and the captain married us again.
'We've done four. But we want a Kiwi one. And there's a compelling reason why we should get married again, in New Zealand. We own a chapel. So why wouldn't we?'
After two previous marriages he wed Liz Davies in 2009 after three years together.
The couple met in 2006 when she was a stand-in make-up artist on his show, Deal or No Deal.
Speaking at his wedding about how they met, Noel said: "To start with it was all very professional, but there was a look in both our eyes."
Noel Edmonds and wife Liz Davies' relationship started in the TOILETS on Deal or No Deal
They were married in a civil ceremony in the drawing room of Lower Slaughter Manor, a 17th century country house in the Cotswolds.
Noel continued: 'I have a chapel. I acquired a chapel with the farm and as you can see, it is in desperate need of restoration. It's a fly and wasp cemetery.
'But my project, starting early next year, is to restore it completely and then Liz and I will get married for the fifth time.'
It comes as the quirky host insisted that his new ITV1 show is nothing like Clarkson's Farm — because he's not as funny as the former Top Gear star.
Noel exclusively told The Sun: 'When we were filming our show, some people who knew about Clarkson's Farm said to me, 'Oh, is it like Clarkson's Farm?'
'And I said, 'No, it couldn't be more different.' First of all, I'm not like Jeremy in many ways, though I wish I were.
"He's brilliant. He can articulate an argument beautifully and deliver a sharp, humorous line like no one else.'
Noel, 76, went on to crack a joke about his years in the showbiz wilderness.
His last big gig was on I'm A Celebrity in 2018, when he was voted out after only nine days.
Noel laughed: 'People still ask, 'Noel Edmonds? Didn't he die? Is he still around?'
'Yes, I'm still here — and living life to the full.'

An emotional Noel Gallagher tells Cardiff crowd just who sparked Oasis reunion
Noel Gallagher has told the crowd inside Cardiff's Principality Stadium just who was the reason behind him finally ending his feud with brother Liam Gallagher and getting Oasis back together The Gallagher brothers have let slip the real reason they got the band back together. During Oasis' second night performing at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, Noel Gallagher revealed who was behind him finally ending his bitter feud with brother Liam Gallagher. Oasis mania has swept the UK once again but it wasn't too long ago that it was unimageable that we'd ever see Noel and Liam on stage together following a dramatic fallout in 2009. The reunion announcement last year came 15 years after Noel quit the Manchester band, saying he "simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer", after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. But speaking on stage this evening, Noel was overcome with emotion at times as he shared the stage with his brother once again. On night two of the show, Noel took a moment to give a shout out to Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs when the group returned for an encore. He said: "On guitar, if it wasn't for him, none of this would have happened!" Noel and Liam swaggered on to the stage before waving at concertgoers at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Friday, the first stop on their long-awaited worldwide reunion tour. The brothers, who had not performed together since their dramatic split in 2009, blasted through their setlist, kicking off with Hello, from their second album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? During the gig, the lead singer apologised to fans for how long it had taken for them to reunite. Liam spoke to the audience several times throughout the set, saying: "Hello people, it's been too long," before their third song, (What's the Story). Before launching into Cigarettes And Alcohol, Liam demanded the audience embrace, telling fans to turn around and hug a stranger. He said: "Right then beautiful people, I want to see you all turn around and put your arms round each other. And when the tune starts, jump up and f****** down." Both brothers made joking references to the dynamic pricing scandal, which caused outrage among fans trying to buy tickets for shows in the UK and Ireland, with some standard tickets appearing to jump from £148 to £355. The controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge to look at the use of dynamic pricing. After Liam walked off stage following Roll With It, Noel took over singing duties for the first time. He quoted the audience a price the gig was worth, before saying: "It's just gone up." Later, Liam said: "Was it worth the £40,000 you paid for a ticket?" During the final bars of Live Forever, a picture of Diogo Jota, the Liverpool footballer who died in a car accident on Thursday, was displayed, and the crowd cheered and applauded the gesture. As they broke into fan-favourite Champagne Supernova, their final song of the evening, the lead singer said: "Right you beautiful people, this is it. Nice one for putting up with us over the years, we know we've been difficult. Champagne Supernova, nice one." While the brothers shared no banter on stage throughout the gig, they very briefly high-fived and half-hugged each other's shoulders after their closing track. Oasis was supported by fellow 90s group Cast and former Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft. Cast, an indie rock band from Liverpool, also paid tribute to Diogo Jota, dedicating their top 10 hit Walkaway to the footballer.

Liam Gallagher's sweet gesture to Noel during Oasis comeback gig proves the ‘brothers are at peace'
LIAM Gallagher made a sweet gesture to brother Noel last night - which signals that the "brothers are at peace". The famous brothers shared the stage for the first time in 16 years last night at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. 3 Liam Gallagher held hands with brother Noel as they made their long awaited return to the stage Credit: AP 3 Liam also placed 'a confident and controlling hand onto Noel's shoulder' Credit: Getty 3 The gesture signals a that the 'brothers are at peace' Credit: The Mega Agency Noel and Liam made their long awaited return to the stage, playing a whopping 23 songs from their impressive back catalogue including Roll With It, Stand By Me, Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger. The former feuding brothers walked out on stage with their arms raised together. Body language expert Judi James said this was a "celebratory ritual that suggested an air of sibling peace and harmony". "Analysis of the ritual is fascinating. It's Liam who has grabbed Noel's wrist to raise their arms, suggesting he's the one wanting to push the idea that they're reunited for real," Judi told the Mirror. "He also places a confident and controlling hand onto Noel's shoulder, raising his maracas in the air in what looks like a V sign to signal victory." The expert also pointed out a moment where Noel took a moment to take everything in while performing Half The World Away. Judi explained: "He looks like a man holding his breath like the rest of the fans in the hope that the sibling bonds hold firm this time and they get through their tour in a state of (almost) total harmony." Noel's 25-year-old daughter Anais was in the crowds as she rocked out to her uncle and dad's numerous hit tracks. She posted a photo of herself having a smashing time with a pint in her hand and donning a blue Oasis shirt. The model and photographer captioned the photo: "It's good to be back." Noel Gallagher's ex-wife Meg Matthews spotted at Oasis comeback gig Anais' mother Meg Mathews, who was married to Noel from 1997 until 2001, was also present at the concert. But Meg reportedly "walked out" of the band's comeback gig - just moments before "her song" was played Along with die hard Oasis fans, celebrities turned up in the masses to see the iconic band return to the stage to sing 23 of their best loved tunes. One person who made sure they were there was Noel's ex-wife Meg. The socialite has been a big supporter of Oasis' comeback, so she was there to show her support on the tour's first night. A source told The Mirror: "After posting about her ex-husband for weeks, Meg Mathews had a prime seat for watching the band. "She was in great spirits before the set, watching Richard Ashcroft with pals." However, after Oasis' two hour set the band came back with a three song encore which included Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova. The Mirror reports that it was at this moment Meg decided to "walk out" and leave the gig. Hardcore fans will remember that Noel actually wrote Wonderwall for Meg, when they were together. GIG OF THE CENTURY It's fair to say last night's Oasis comeback did NOT disappoint. Fans were treated to performances by Cast, a Britpop band from Liverpool, and The Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft before the Gallagher brothers made their long awaited return to the stage. Oasis proved they were worth the 16 year wait, playing a whopping 23 songs from their impressive back catalogue including Roll With It, Stand By Me, and Talk Tonight. Before Cigarettes & Alcohol Liam dished out orders to the crowd, saying: 'I want you to do us a favour. I don't ask much. 'I want you to turn around, every single one of you 'Put your arms around each other like you like each other and when the tune starts you jump up and down. 'Its f***ing easy.' After last night's gig, Oasis play another night in Cardiff before moving on to Heaton Park in their native Manchester for five nights. Then the band heads to Wembley Stadium for five nights from July 25 and then on to Edinburgh and Dublin, with the first part of their UK leg ending at Croke Park on August 17. Oasis then heads over Canada and America for gigs in Toronto, Chicago, LA and Mexico City before returning to London for two more dates at Wembley at the end of September. They then move on to Asia, Australia and South America, finally ending their tour on November 23 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. You can check out every moment from last night's first show in our Oasis blog.

‘We will beat Government for second time in court' – Kneecap at largest ever gig
The 45,000-strong crowd in Finsbury Park, London watched them walk on in front of a screen that said 'Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people'. They were supporting Irish band Fontaines DC, whose front man Grian Chatten joined to perform their collaboration Better Way To Live. People echoed the Belfast group's chants when they repeated the 'f*** Keir Starmer' and 'you're just a s*** Jeremy Corbyn' comments made at Glastonbury the previous weekend. The crowd in Finsbury Park (Jeff Moore/PA) Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs as Mo Chara, appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court earlier this month charged with a terror offence and will return next month. Fellow member Naoise O Caireallain, who uses the stage name Moglai Bap, said 'if anyone's free on the 20th of August, you wanna go to the court and support Mo Chara' before shouting 'free Mo Chara, free, free Mo Chara'. Wearing a keffiyeh, O hAnnaidh responded: 'I appreciate it, the 20th of August is going to be the second time Kneecap have beat the British Government in court – in their own court, on their own terms, and we're going to beat them for the second time. 'I tell you what, there is nothing like embarrassing the British Government.' Last year Kneecap won a discrimination challenge over a decision by former business secretary Kemi Badenoch to refuse them a £14,250 funding award. The UK Government conceded it was 'unlawful' after the band launched legal action claiming the decision to refuse the grant discriminated against them on grounds of nationality and political opinion. It was agreed that the £14,250 sum would be paid by the Government to the group. During the performance the group intermittently broke off the mosh pits and raucous crowd by addressing the war in Gaza, which is a recurring theme of their shows. Liam Og O Hannaidh (Jeff Moore/PA) O hAnnaidh said: 'It's usually around this point of the gig that we decide to talk about what's happening in Palestine. 'I understand that it's almost inhumane that I'm thinking of new things to say on stage during a genocide, for sound bites. 'It's beyond words now, like, we always used to say obviously they're being bombed from the skies with nowhere to go, but it's beyond that now. 'They've been being starved for a few months on end, and not only that, the areas that they have set up, to collect aid and food, have turned into killing fields and they're killing hundreds a day trying to collect food.' He continued: 'It's beyond words, but again, we played in Plymouth last night to 750 people and we did the same thing, so it doesn't matter how big or small our audience is, Kneecap will always use the platform for talking about this.' O Caireallain had said earlier in the show: 'They can try and silence us, they can try and stop us, but we're not going to stop talking about Palestine – as long as there's a genocide happening in Palestine we're going to keep talking about it and yous are going to keep talking about it, and they can't stop us.' The UN human rights office has recorded 613 killings near humanitarian convoys and at aid distribution points in Gaza run by an Israeli-backed American organisation since it began operations in late May. On Friday its spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani said the rights office was not able to attribute responsibility for the killings, but 'it is clear that the Israeli military has shelled and shot at Palestinians trying to reach the distribution points' operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). The GHF has denied any serious injuries or deaths on its sites and says shootings outside their immediate vicinity are under the purview of Israel's military. The Israeli military has said previously it fires warning shots to control crowds or at Palestinians who approach its troops.
